Hello
1st thing to try is the system in safe mode restore to before the problem
http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm
Windows Vista
Using the F8 method:
- Restart your computer.
- When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
- Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
- Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
- To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
- Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.
If that does not solve it read more
read the tutorial below
When you log on a Windows Vista-based or a Windows 7 computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947215#letmefixit
Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242
If you tried to log on to Windows and received an error message telling you that your user profile is damaged, you can try to fix it. You will need to create a new profile and then copy the files from the existing to the new profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

I tried to install iTunes, but he said that "the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode or if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Call support personnel. "They gave me similar messages by other programs I've tried to install as well.
Because I was not running Windows in safe mode in time, I assumed that the installer was not installed correctly. So I tried to download from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en
But then I got error messages like "this update does not apply to your system" and "not enough memory is available to process this command." I tried all the links and none of them worked for me. I'm running a Vista Home Premium 64 bit, and I 2.38 GB of available RAM, so I don't think that the lack of memory is the problem here. What should I do?
1.] I had a previous version of iTunes, but I got rid of it with Revo Uninstaller.
I was looking around and I found this: http://www.vistax64.com/vista-installation-setup/96680-repair-windows-installer-service-vista-all-versions-2.html
I followed the direction of the last message (by F'n Vista) and changed the value of WOW64 Registry and now iTunes has installed perfectly and works now. I'll try to install other programs that I got hurt with previously. Thank you very much for your help! :)

Error 1719: The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed
Original title: Please help, almost nothing works: video, audio, internet, most of the programs.
It is a long story and it arrived a bit at random so I have no idea where to start, but I'm going. While trying to install autodesk software, I received the message: Error 1719. Install the WIndows service could not be accessed. This can happen if windows install is not properly installed. Contact your support team. I didn't know what to do so I rebooted and that's where the trouble started. I'm unable to play any audio or video. I am unable to connect to the internet as there is no connection available, but I'd just been connecting to my wireless home network earlier. I am unable to do a system restore because I got the message: System Restore is not working properly on this system. A volume shadow copy Service component has encountered an unexpected error. See the log even application for more information. (0 x 80042302). I think that this problem may have to do with a corrupt registry or some proxy problems or something. I tried to reinstall drivers, but I'm unable to access my cd drive to launch the backup drive drivers provided by microsoft. Please help me, I dual boot ubuntu is how I can access the internet. It must be a software problem if I have my other OS works perfectly. NEEED HELP SO BADLY. THANKS in advance.
